Chapter 964 Grandpa has been saved by you again!

Although the poisonous insect could not be seen, one could tell that after the poisonous insect woke up, the old prince's originally peaceful sleeping face began to become restless and painful again, which was heartbreaking to see.

Everyone held their breath and concentrated, trying their best to breathe as lightly as possible. Their feet became numb from standing and their necks became sore from stretching, but they did not dare to change their posture for fear that any sound would affect the detoxification.

In such silence, everyone maintained almost the same posture until the detoxification was completed.

The silver needle slowly guided the poisonous insect in the old prince's skull to his right ear. Qiao Ran said in a low voice:

"Bring some hot water!"

Mo Beihan, who was standing on her left, hurriedly and carefully picked up the basin of hot water and handed it over. At this time, more than a quarter of an hour had passed. Even though there were eight charcoal basins in the room and the room was warm, the original hot water had turned into lukewarm water.

And this is exactly what Qiao Ran wanted. She budgeted the time and the hot water turned into warm water just right.

With a poke of the last silver needle in her hand, a bug that had just poked its little head out of the old prince's ear was thrown into the basin of water.

Until then, several people whose bodies were almost stiff finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then, without even bothering to relax their stiff and numb bodies, they hurriedly leaned forward, stretched their heads and looked into the basin of warm water with wide eyes.

In the large copper basin for washing face, there was a black bug the same size as a wireworm.

Its body is pitch black, but its head is fiery red, and it has a pair of tiny black eyes and a green pointed beak, which looks particularly strange.

The black bugs twisted their bodies and swam in the warm water, looking surprisingly comfortable.

Qiao Ran threw a purple pill into the basin, and half of the water in the basin immediately turned purple.

Then something strange happened. The black insect spit out black blood from its green mouth.

The blood mixed with the purple-red potion, and slowly the basin of water turned into clear water again, and the originally black insects slowly turned into snow-white.

Qiao Ran took out a small transparent glass bottle with a wooden stopper from the cloth bag, pulled out the cork, and used a long silver needle to pick up the white insects that had spit out black blood in the basin and threw them into the bottle.

The white bug twisted in the transparent bottle for a while, then slowly and quietly lay still, as if it had entered a dormant state again.

Several generals were surprised, not only by the insect, but also by the transparent glass bottle, which they had never seen before.

"Miss, your glass bottle is really special. It is extremely expensive, and such transparent glass is rare. How could you bear to use it to hold a poisonous insect?"

A general couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

Qiao Ran looked at the ordinary glass bottle taken out from the space and had to find an excuse:

"I bought this from a foreign merchant. I use it to hold the Gu, so I can observe its status more conveniently."

The general nodded, but still felt that the girl was too extravagant, using such an expensive bottle to store insects. If the nobles knew about this, they would probably be jealous.

After putting the cork in the bottle and throwing it back into the cloth bag, Qiao Ran asked the general beside him to take two ice cubes and throw them into the basin of warm water.

"You can pour this basin of water out now. Remember to pour it into the sewer, not onto the flowers or plants. This water is somewhat toxic."

Butler Zhou immediately called a servant over, repeated Qiao Ran's words to the servant, and asked him to pour some water.

After Qiao Ran finished her instructions, she used a long silver needle to prick an acupuncture point behind the old prince's ear, and the unconscious old prince suddenly sat up.

"Bring me a basin of ice water!"

Qiao Ran shouted urgently, and Butler Zhou quickly brought over some ice water.

"puff!"

With a sound, the old prince opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of black blood. The warm blood quickly cooled in the ice water.

Qiao Ran explained:

"This black blood is also poisonous. It will evaporate into the air at room temperature. People will inhale the poisonous gas when they breathe. These poisons are the toxins that caused the old prince to suffer in his coma."

She added:

"Don't pour out this basin of water. It will be useful again."

After saying that, she fed the old prince a pill.

Amid everyone's nervous anticipation, only a dozen breaths passed before the old prince, who had been in a coma for many days, slowly opened his eyes.

"You are……?"

The old prince, who had just woken up, saw a very familiar face appear in front of him, but his mind was still a little confused due to being tortured by the poisonous insect for many days.

Qiao Ran smiled and said:

"Grandpa Mo, I'm Qiao Ran!"

Mo Beihan also hurried over:

"Grandfather, Ranran and I rushed here from the capital day and night. It was Ranran who saved you and your poison has been removed by Ranran."

"Ran girl! Thank you! Grandpa has been saved by you once again!"

The old prince looked at this capable and good child excitedly and was deeply moved.

"Grandpa Mo, you're welcome. This is what I should do. You've been tortured by the poisonous insect for so many days and have just woken up. You should have a good rest! We'll come to see you later!"

"Grandpa Zhou, please have someone cook some light porridge for the old prince. He hasn't eaten for many days, so it would be better for him to eat some liquid food first."

"Okay, don't worry, Miss Qiao Ran. I've asked the kitchen to prepare some porridge, which will be delivered soon. The food is still being heated up in the kitchen. You and the prince have had a hard time on the journey, so take a good bath first, and have a good rest after dinner!"

"Okay, thank you, Grandpa Zhou!"

The two people, who had been traveling day and night and sleeping in the open air, took a comfortable hot bath and changed into dry clothes.

However, Butler Zhou did not expect that the future Crown Prince's Consort would also come, so the palace did not prepare new clothes for her. He just now urgently went to another general's mansion to borrow two sets of young women's clothes from their female relatives.

However, Qiao Ran was not used to wearing other people's clothes, and she did not expect that Butler Zhou would go out of her way to help her borrow clothes from other women's families. In fact, she could also wear men's clothes, and she had a lot of clothes in her own space.

She took out two boxes of this extremely useful moisturizer from the Northern Frontier from the space and gave them to the housekeeper, Old Zhou, as a thank you gift, asking him to give the two boxes of moisturizer to the owner when he returned the clothes.

Then he took out the clothes he had prepared, took a bath and changed into them, then armed himself again with thermal underwear, down jacket, down pants, thick socks and snow boots.

There was no way. The weather in northern Xinjiang was too cold. Qiao Ran estimated that the temperature here was as low as minus 30 degrees Celsius. She was from the South in her past and present lives, and if she didn't wear more clothes, she would probably be frozen into an ice sculpture.

Several generals were also invited by the prince to dine together in the palace. The people in the army did not have such dining etiquette, and Qiao Ran also expressed that she did not mind dining with everyone, so she only asked Butler Zhou to set up one table.

Qiao Ran thought that since Prince Mo Beihan only came to Northern Frontier once every few years, there should be a table full of delicious food to welcome them.

Unexpectedly, the table was full of food, but it was almost all meat dishes, with no fresh vegetables or fruits at all.
